I am going to replace the heatsink fan for a 2800+ AMD. Should I get a hi-speed fan? Would it keep it cooler? Should fan blow air into, or pull air out?

The faster it spins, the more noise it will generate. Better get yourself a large diameter fan that has a low speed.

Well, most designs are made to blow air on the CPU.

What cooler are you using now?
